I would suggest either finding or building your own website system by which people can sign up. Get the list of addresses, wherever they are stored. After that, simply use your normal email client or webmail to send mail to all the clients in the list. bcc is your friend (blind carbon-copy stops everyone from seeing everyone, hopefully cutting down on the end user's system resources).

I just send myself an HTMl email using my gmail account. It works fine, both in gmail's web application and Mozilla Thunderbird. Looking at the source code for the email, I discovered it has a plain text alternative as well. Chances are good that you have a setting somewhere denying HTML emails, so it shows up as plain text.

I think your problem is you include <html> and other elements specific to web pages in full. I believe most clients like partial HTML input, such as normal body child nodes, without <html> <head> <body> <meta> etc.

Check your host provider admin control panel. The host(s) I have used all have a server option to allow easy mailing list creation and administration and all the tools to make or break a subscription and also send plain text or HTML as per requirements of the subscriber.

You should not be forcing HTML emails on to people unless they want them.
